Big Nick

There were three goplayers in a bar. They were playing a bit, drinking beers (quite expensive in Finland) and having fun. Suddenly, another player walked in. (Let's call him Harry).Harry said to the other players: Can you buy me a beer, please? I'm broke, and I sure am thirsty.One of the players spoke: Well, I think that's a strange request. I mean, we don't even know you.Fair enough, said Harry, but if you buy me a beer, I'll show you a miracle.

The players were curious enough to accept his offer. They bought him a beer, and he said. Big Nick, appear!!! Loud thunder rolled, and a big man, wearing a Kimono, walked in. He was more than 2.20 tall. He sat down behind a go board and said: Master Harry, I'm your servant, ready for a game!

The other players were impressed. Where did you find this servant, this Big Nick?Harry said: Outside the village there's a big old oak tree. If you walk around it three times and shout out your wish, you'll be rewarded.

One of the players said: I'm going to try this out. Harry gave him directions (and received another beer) and the man was gone.

Two hours later, he walked back in, looking bewilderd. He said: this tree is a bit deaf.What do you mean, said the others.Well, said the man, look what's behind me.He clapped his hands, an a million bees flew in, each dropping a bit of honey on his head.How can this be? You're all covered in honey?The player said: I asked for a lot of money, but the tree is really hard of hearing.Harry said: I agree, I didn't ask for a big Nick...

Next morning, they showed up at the congress with a hangover. But that can happen to the best of us.
